I don't think a 72 Chevelle qualifies as a clunker.

Neither do most of the cars being traded in for the clunker program, it seems. I'z jes making a funny anyway... Nice car. My mother had a Chevelle. I got carted around in that thing most of my childhood.

EDIT: Looking for pictures of it, I don't know what year it was. I do know it was one of the classier looking ones and she was very upset the day she had to part with it.

Further EDIT: I think it was a 71 Malibu. It was a neat car, that's all I remember, and I've never really been into cars. My father was into cars but much more into boat racing. At one time he held a world speed record for a Jersey Speed Skiff.

Gotta ask....what type of mechanic are you?

The kind that can work on a car in a tux and white gloves & never get dirty (I've heard there are some like that), or the kind that is covered with black grease the minute you even start thinking about working on a car?

I'm definitely the latter. To me, the toughest part of any car job is the hours I spend at the sink scrubbing most of the grease off. Of course, I NEVER get it all, it sorta has to wear off.

Nice lookin' car, have fun!

I just learned what '58 Continentals looked like. Gonna get one of those? ;)

You can't trust a man who doesn't have a little dirt (or grease) under his fingernails.
